What growing producers are up against.
Built for pet food & treat traceability software.
Ingredient to bagged lot
Receive ingredients by lot, cook or bake in tracked batches, and package into bagged finished lots with lot numbers and best-by dates.
One-click containment
If an ingredient is suspect, preview impact across batches and finished lots, then contain to hold all affected inventory at once.
Distributor shipment trace
Link bagged lots to the distributors and retailers that received them, so a recall notice reaches exactly the right customers.
Consistent lot-code records
Record finished-lot codes, label versions, quantities, and best-by dates directly on the packaged product record.
One connected chain, receiving to shipment.
Log each incoming supplier lot with quantity, expiration, and COA status - the lot lands in quarantine until it's inspected and approved.
Start a batch and consume exact approved lots. LotThread blocks anything on hold, expired, or short before it enters production.
Turn a completed batch into finished lots with traceable lot numbers, quantities, label versions, and best-by dates.
Track remaining quantity, location, expiry, and hold/release state so you always know what's clear to ship.
Record customer shipments with the same guardrails, closing the chain from supplier lot to the customer who received it.
Outcomes producers feel right away.
Questions about pet food & treat traceability software.
Can I run a practice recall before a real one?
Yes. Open a mock recall drill against any ingredient lot to see affected batches, finished lots, on-hand units, and customers - without touching live inventory - so your team is ready when it counts.
Do I have to replace my accounting or ecommerce tools?
No. LotThread is the traceability layer that sits alongside QuickBooks, Shopify, and the tools you already use - it connects your materials, batches, and shipments into one record without replacing your books or storefront.
How long does it take to trace my first product?
Most producers trace a first product in an afternoon. You set up one product, one supplier, and one production batch, and the genealogy and recall scoping compute from there - no manufacturing ERP rollout required.
Can I import existing lots from a spreadsheet?
Yes. Map your columns once and bulk-import materials, suppliers, and existing lots from a spreadsheet or supplier file, so you start with your real history instead of a blank system.
